lazy tang

Chapter 790
Li Er played at sea for five days, and these five days made up for the shortcomings of Li Er's first half of his life.Born as an aristocrat in Guanlong, he was the emperor who hadn't soaked in the puddles for a few days.This time, I had enough of the addiction of drifting at sea!

Five days of living at sea gave Li Er a deeper understanding of the sea.This is the process of an emperor moving from the land to the sea, watching Li Er staring at the sea.Yunhao knew that the era of great navigation in Datang was about to begin.Any policy of a country, if it meets two conditions, will be implemented very smoothly.

The first is to conform to the laws of the economy, as Taizu’s old saying goes, a stick cannot defeat the laws of the economy.As long as one thing conforms to economic laws, it can benefit most people.People from the bottom will not dig their own money!The reason why Wang Anshi's reform was unsuccessful is entirely because his reform violated economic laws and did not conform to the times.

The second is the promotion of those in power, and the people in power here specifically refers to Li Er.Without Li Er's nod, you can't do anything in Datang.If you leave aside Li Er's tough push, only a sharp butcher's knife is waiting for you.

Now that these two points have been satisfied, Li Er sees the prospect of sea trade routes under Yun Hao's enlightenment.Obviously, taking the sea route can reach the Middle East faster, and the cargo carried by sea ships is far more than that of camels.As for the loss on the road, the difference is astonishing.

During the Song Dynasty, the Silk Road that camel bells rang for hundreds of years was cut off.One is because of the rise of Xixia, and another important reason is the development of the Maritime Silk Road.

Under Yunhao's support, Datang's navigation technology is advancing by leaps and bounds.The giant ships of the Datang Navy continued to clean up the South China Sea, and the former pirates from east to west disappeared.The sea has become very clean, as long as the law and order is guaranteed, business and trade will soon prosper.

Yun Hao just defeated the big pirate headed by Zhang Zhongjian, and the disappearance of the pirates was due to the fat old man Ling Jing.

Because of the advanced equipment and the backing of Datang.The construction progress of the Straits Castle is very fast, and it is not as cold as in Guanzhong.It can be constructed all year round, when there is enough labor.A castle of reinforced concrete is rising!

Although the pirates have no culture, they know the role of Strait Castle.Here guards the main road to and from the South China Sea, and the narrowest point is not even twenty miles away.When the Tang warship sailed across the waterway of the strait, the pirates could only beg God to give them a pair of wings if they wanted to go there.

Besides, the sky is not safe, with Straits Castle as the center.Within a radius of three or four hundred miles is the control area of ​​the airship, as long as there is a pirate ship.Explosive things will be dropped from the airship, as well as incendiary bombs that can burn.

After countless pirate ships turned torches at sea, the pirates knew that any attempt to raid Strait Castle was wishful thinking.Because it is difficult for a sailboat to sail a distance of three or four hundred miles in one night.Even if we set off when it was just dark, it was already morning when we arrived at Straits Castle.

The shining pirate ship on the sea can only be the target of the bomb dropped by the airship.Or the target of the Datang navy's training is absolutely absolutely dead.

Life is like sex, if you can't resist it, you have to learn to enjoy it.

So a pirate named Alimu and a pirate named Mason found this fat man who could have the final say in Straits Castle.

Ling Jing, the old man next to him, readily accepted the surrender of the two chieftains, but of course he would not allow these two and their subordinates to enter the South China Sea.If anyone dares to enter the attack range of Strait Castle without authorization, what awaits them is to be annihilated by the Datang Navy.

Ling Jing has become a goblin, and he has a thorough understanding of people's hearts.The game of slapping a sweet date with a slap is even more proficient.Boss Ling arranged new jobs for these two dear friends, and the Vikings can help escort the Datang caravan.In return, they can get [-]% of the operating profits of Datang merchants.The emperor did not send hungry soldiers, so Ling Lao would not let the Viking comrades who came from the original way to work hungry.

Mr. Alimu in Persia is better at robbery, especially their pointed warships are very convenient for beach grabbing.Most of the time, the sea breeze can send them directly to the beach.

Ling Jing would not let people do things he was not good at, so Mr. Alimu's job was to rob.The looted property belongs to him, and the population can be sold to Ling Jing.It's completely piece-rate wages, more work, more pay... It's okay to say that the more you grab, the more you get.

The objects of robbery are naturally Tianzhu and Persia, two countries along the Indian Ocean.In the matter of robbery, Alimu treated everyone equally.The specific manifestation is that they are not merciless towards their compatriots in the motherland, who should be killed, who should be killed, who should be robbed, and who should be caught!
Of course, Ling Jing, the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled are not wanted.As long as he wants those young men and women, the evil slave trade will intensify like this.So much so that a year later, many places along the coast of Tianzhu became no-man's land.

The people who came back from the robbery were all sold by Ling Jing to His Majesty Li Er.The great Tian Khan always thinks that Datang's infrastructure is not perfect, which requires a lot of labor.Li Er felt a little distressed that Tang people could be used to serve as corvee.After all, his people now have less than 4000 million people. If possible, Li Er would like women in Tang Dynasty to have children like pigs.It is best to have seventeen or eight children in one litter!
The slave trade solved this problem very well, and the slaves brought in only had to provide food.There is no such thing as wages at all, and building bridges and roads is their job.Individuals who are very shady and evil have bought many slaves to work in their own mines.

Greed flows through every capillary of capital to squeeze these slaves.The stewards came up with one very humane and creative method after another to increase production.

For example, divide the slaves into shifts and compare the output of the two shifts.A team of slaves with high output can get all the food.The team with low output can only receive [-]% of the food.In other words, as long as you defeat the slaves who are also miserable, you can eat your stomach.

The result of the production competition is that the slaves work desperately, and the natural death rate remains high.Because their competitors are also struggling to survive.

As long as there is a team of people who are not full for two consecutive meals, it is very likely that several people in this team will die.The management will add a new strong labor force, and the addition of newcomers will allow them to overtake quickly.Then there was another group of people, and a few died.

The steward didn't feel sorry for these dark-skinned slaves at all, such slaves were sold very cheaply in Datang.You can buy a strong one for two silver dollars, but you can't buy a weaker one for this price.

For two silver dollars, Datang's donkeys also sold for that much.

Before he knew it, Li Er had been in Panheng in Yazhou for half a month.For a place where criminals were usually exiled, the emperor had been here too long.

Li Chengqian wished that his father would live in Yazhou forever and never come back. He even hoped that the airship carrying Li Er would crash.

Obviously, Li Chengqian's prayer was not devout enough.God did not do what he wished and killed his father Li Er.

Jian Guo is equivalent to the temporary emperor, except for orders to use more than [-] soldiers, Li Chengqian has the final say on all government affairs.The feeling of power is so good. When everyone in the world surrenders to you, you will feel like a god.Everyone who sees you has to bow down and salute, and everyone who sees you has to worship you.

Once a person has had a taste of power, it is like smoking a toothbrush.The pleasure that goes deep into the bone marrow fills everyone's capillaries with excitement.

Li Chengqian is now a serious addict. Apart from not daring to go to the Tai Chi Hall to drink five or six drinks, the entire Chang'an City has to rely on him to survive.

"I've been a prince for more than ten years. Seeing my father is like seeing a cat avoiding a mouse. Today is a sigh of relief, grandma. It's been more than ten years, and I haven't had a few days like this." Li Chengqian Burping with alcohol, he would never dare to drink like this when Li Er was around.

Zhang Xuansu was sent by him to deal with government affairs with Fang Xuanling, and Chu Suiliang was busy with the affairs of the Imperial College.Yu Zhining was the only one in the East Palace who was qualified to drink with the crown prince.

Alcohol seriously lowered Li Chengqian's vigilance, and it also gave Li Chengqian a lot of desire to confide.He wants to talk too much, wants to say things that he usually wants to say but dare not say.For so many years, Li Er oppressed him like an insurmountable mountain.Now that Gao Shan is far away, how can this make him unhappy.

"Your Highness! You drank too much!" Yu Zhining didn't dare to speak, and could only persuade him in a low voice.All the palace servants and servants in the hall have been kicked out, and Li Chengqian is the only one who can hear his complaints.

Don't look at Li Chengqian's indecisiveness on weekdays, but if he really wakes up tomorrow and remembers what he said today, he may be killed.

But dare not take such a risk, a negligent head will move.

"I didn't drink too much!" Li Chengqian drank another glass, eighty percent drunk.His face was as red as a monkey's butt, and no matter where he looked, his eyes were straight.

Yu Zhining was so frightened that the wine glass fell to the ground with a "pop", oh!Can you say this word now?Except for the one in the Tai Chi Hall, whoever said who died!

"Hahaha!" Li Chengqian laughed wantonly while pointing at Yu Zhining.

"Chen! I was shocked by His Royal Highness's domineering aura...!" Yu Zhining forced a smile helplessly.

"Okay! On the day I ascend the throne, you, Yu Zhining, will be my servant!" Li Chengqian pointed at Yu Zhining and laughed.

"Minister! Thank you, Lord Long En!" Yu Zhining hurriedly knelt down on the ground. He is an official of the Eastern Palace, and it seems reasonable to shout thank you Lord Long En.

"Why? Don't you believe me?" Li Chengqian said a little displeased when he saw Yu Zhining's appearance.

"No, no, no! How dare I disbelieve my lord, I am willing to put my mind to shame. I thank my lord for trusting me, and I respect my lord for a drink." Holding the wine glass in both hands, Yu Zhining respected Li Chengqian, and then took a sip And do.

"Okay!" Li Chengqian said yes with his tongue out, poured himself a glass of wine and drank it down.

Li Chengqian, who was already [-]% drunk, is now [-]% drunk.Yu Zhining only hoped that this old man who drank too much would quickly put his head on the table. This is not drinking, this is simply killing his life.If the words here today are spread, Li Chengqian will be deposed at most, but his own body will be gone.

It is said that there is no Baiqisi in the East Palace, even if Yu Zhining was killed, he would not believe it.

"Yu Zhining, you are a good person. I have been with me for so many years, and there is no credit but hard work. I will write a will to you. Tomorrow you will be Datang's servant." Li Chengqian stood up, staggering walked to the desk.Holding the desk with both hands, he stood for a while.

With the pen dancing the dragon and the snake, he really wrote an imperial edict for Yu Zhining.After writing the last word, Li Chengqian looked at the official script he had practiced for many years with satisfaction.He reached out to take the seal, put it on the ink pad and shook it randomly a few times.Then it was heavily covered on that piece of paper!
Yu Zhining's lips trembled, did he dare to write such a thing?The back of the spine was icy cold, and the hands and feet were even colder than the back of the spine.

Burning that piece of paper was Yu Zhining's first thought.This paper cup must not be seen by a third person. This is simply an edict to destroy the family.

"Wow...!" Vomit shot out of Li Chengqian's mouth like an arrow, and Li Chengqian tried his best to support the table.But his legs became more and more unsteady, his body gradually weakened, and he finally sat in his own vomit.Leaning back, "Boom" his head hit the floor heavily.

This is the floor. If it is a stone floor, you have to open your head.

"Come here!" Yu Zhining ran over in shock, and regretted it after saying this.No matter what, I have to burn this urging edict, and it will not be too late to call people in.

But the words have already been exported, like water that has been poured out, and it can't be taken back.The chaotic footsteps of the palace people could already be heard at the door, Yu Zhining hurriedly grabbed the edict with wet ink on the desk and put it into his arms.This matter must not be let to a third person, this is Yu Zhining's only thought.

As soon as the edict was finished, more than a dozen palace servants rushed in.Seeing Li Chengqian collapsed in his vomit, he hurriedly lifted him up.

Maybe it was because the way of lifting was wrong, Li Chengqian was spraying vomit out mouthful.What I just ate, I vomited out now.

Vomit was all over his face, and the palace people kept wiping off the dirt with handkerchiefs.

"Why does the prince drink so much wine!" Chu Suiliang walked in and frowned when he saw Li Chengqian's appearance.

"It's not that you don't know His Royal Highness's temper. He insists on telling you that I dare to persuade you? I can only send someone to invite you, but I didn't expect it to be a step too late." Yu Zhining hurriedly pushed himself out, Chu Although Suiliang was angry, it would not change the color of the world.But it is still possible to change the color of the East Palace!
Several times, Yu Zhining saw Chu Suiliang reprimanding Li Chengqian.Li Chengqian could only stand there, not daring to speak back.Yu Zhi would rather not provoke such a fierce person.

"Hmph! Help His Royal Highness to rest, ask the imperial doctor to take a pulse, and I will settle the score with you later." Chu Suiliang ordered, and the palace servant immediately carried Li Chengqian to the back hall.
